“Most of my work as a math teacher isn’t even math. It’s helping students believe that they can also do math. We don’t talk about that enough.” —José Vilson, Educator

One of my takeaways from this article: making education accessible is vital to social mobility. This includes:
-ensuring classes are affordable
-providing necessary supports including but not limited to support for financial aid applications, academic tutoring,

From Chile all the way up to Canada. Amazing way to close a great show!

It takes tremendous courage for communities to work with scientists to study harms when the results might overturn important beliefs.
This week in class, we discussed what can happen when unreliable science on societal harms captures the public imagination.

NEW: Liam Ramos and his father have been released from ICE detention and allowed to return home.
We'll keep fighting so that families like theirs don't endure trauma or detention at the hands of federal agents.
If you’re outside of Minnesota and you’re wondering how to help, this guide is excellent.
And seriously. Take down your Ring doorbell TODAY.
We invite apps for our postbac fellowship in educational research and action. Postbacs engage in research on learning & learning environments, receive close mentorship from scholars across disciplines, and gain hands-on experience through community-based programs. See cladlab.nd.edu/era-fellowsh...
I really love Nashville. Less stimulating than NOLA but great food and culture. Louisville Kentucky got more great food and culture.
Congrats to Kiara! 🥳
This is a HUGE win…and one that happened because we ~collectively~ said “NO!”
But AAAS coming in and saying on record to the NYT “Science is doing ok. Things are not bad at all…” is baffling.
If things are hard for you as a scientist, please share in the comments.

My son is obsessed with this book. Obsessed!
Omg. This is a terribly sad news. I met Victoria several years ago and she was such a sweet, thoughtful person. I am so sorry to hear this 💔
NEVER!

🤓Do students take context into account when planning how to study?
We examine how students plan their use of cognitive vs. motivational learning strategies, and whether they take learning context into account. They do, but mainly for cognitive strategies.
